  DVD Verdict Review - Clockwise
There are times where the movie is actually more painful than funny, and we cringe a bit at some of the things Stimpson causes his traveling companions to endure.
John Cleese fuels the movie with a performance that is the epitome of everything we have come to expect from him.
John Cleese and this movie are acquitted and are free to go; just in time for the next train, as it turns out.

Looking at it from the "front" it could be spinning clockwise then if looking from "behind" it would be counterclockwise without ever having to actually change direction...
This is entirely due to the fact that in the shots after the second one, the station was being viewed on the other side, thus changing its apparent rotation.
The stars rotate clockwise, which means relative to the starts the station is rotating anti-clockwise.

Clockwise is a movie which I last saw over ten years ago.
Unfortunately, Clockwise ends with a dull finale, which is a shame as the rest of the movie is quite amusing.
Clockwise is presented with an Anamorphic 1.78:1 transfer.

 John Cleese: Clockwise - Movie
I've watched a few of the movies that Cleese has been in (Monty Python series; A Fish Called Wanda, Fierce Creatures etc...) and have found them all to be quite funny, so I had high hopes when I got this movie.
Cleese as usual is hilarious, but I couldn't help feeling that the plot was a little bit too simplistic; linear almost, and were it not for his acting, the movie would have flopped.
Overall, it wasn't a bad movie, it had its funny parts, but I don't think it was anything near his best.

 2001: A Space Odyssey mistakes, goofs and bloopers
Continuity: For most of the sequence during which the Orion space shuttle closes in to dock with Space Station One, we see the space station rotating counterclockwise, as viewed from the side the Orion is approaching.
The stars in this shot are turning clockwise, implying that the station is moving anti-clockwise, hence must be rotating clockwise when observed from the Orion.
Continuity: In the scene where the astronauts are approaching the monolith on the moon, the earth is clearly seen in a gibbous phase near the horizon.

 Adding More Spin
2: Do a Clockwise Short Sun.(ss) This is a Clockwise Sun where the diabolo falls between the sticks instead of right of the sticks.
This trick can be entered by doing a Clockwise Sun and then a string wrap movement of the Right stick (CounterClockwise) around the diabolo.
Another and even easier start is with a Clockwise wrap of the Left stick around the diabolo.

The band was Clockwise, a savage group of hardcore-influenced musicians that included bassist Alfonso Bernal, drummer Dave McMahan, vocalist Austin Leduc, and guitarists Justin Pasquale and Scott Bears.
Once known in the city for his vandalism more than his musical skills, Leduc became the center of attention when the band's high octane sound began catching on with hard rock fans.
Offering big choruses, solid hooks, and a penchant for flashy stage moves, Clockwise caught the attention of RCA Records, who signed the group and paired them with producer Dan Brodbeck.

Finally, the movie mode has good resolution and frame rate but just too simple and the album feature is not well implemented.
Movie mode is basic and too bare: no zoom, focus when recording
It's not that fast but has a ton of scene modes, some sort of high ISO and excellent movie mode.

In its way, the movie is a simple comedy of errors.
Yet despite the great John Cleese reactions to the never-ending stream of challenges, his character never loses sight of his goals or his integrity.
I think that juxtaposition is part of what makes the movie work.

 Sun Diabolo Tricks
Also note: This Power Thrust can also be performed without beginning with a CW Sun, but care must be taken that the diabolo doesn't get away from you during thrusting.
Stretch your arms and sticks pointing at the diabolo and turn your body to the right 180 degrees so you end up facing the side where the diabolo ends up.
Begin a Clockwise Sun, but at soon as it begins to rise on the left, turn and face the left.

 Press Release: SMASHING YOUNG STARS LEAVES DWARFS IN THEIR WAKE
The movie depicts a collision between two rotating disks around young stars.
The clockwise disk's gas is drawn out as its rotation matches the rotation of the orbit to form tidal tails in an S-like shape that do not fragment.
The movie zooms in to look at the left, counter-clockwise disk in detail as the shrunken, heavy disk forms brown dwarfs from dense spirals of gas.

(Using power pulls in the Clockwise Sun position seems to work better than when the sting is open because the sting twist seems to keep the diabolo more stable.)
Other ways to return from the Clockwise Sun are shown on the Beginning Suns page.

The most natural spin for me is a palm-in, clockwise twirl.
This is the most vigorous twirl, because it involves the pencil continuously travelling back and forth between three pairs of fingers.
I usually default to this style on most occasions, alternating with combinations of the first spin (clockwise and counter-clockwise) for variety.

The movie basically follows a day in the life of the time-obsessed Stimpson as he makes his way to a conference in Norwich, where he is to make a speech as the first ever grammar-school head to be made president of the headmasters association.
But even the best of these films suffer from the fact that they are one-joke movies.
They tend to drag on just a little bit, and "Clockwise" is no different.
